Not sure what to say?

So sad to hear but what a blessed life. I only met my Great Uncle Forrey a time or two in my youth, and most memorably at my grandmothers, his older sister, Lisles funeral in 1994. We all have such fond memories of that visit. While his sister moved her young family out west to Seattle, We always heard such wonderful stories about him. Told with such love and adoration. I wish we were closer and got to know him and the loved ones around better. You are all in our thoughts and prayers, and...

Forrest was a remarkable human being. I am grateful to have gotten to know him and had the privilege of singing with him and giving him his weekly "music lesson". I will never forget him or his beautiful baritone voice.

Forrest Behm--a wonderful person whom I met in 1965 in Corning,NY
We did a few projects for him over the years,but during last few years,it was nice to see him in Wegman.His leg pained him--knowing reading his injury at the age of 5- I realize Forrest as well his father were made of STEEL--now I should say made of STRONG GLASS--unbreakable. We will miss you,but God is waiting for you --they need a player like you in heaven. Satinder Mullick

Our hearts go out to Brian and Karen, Courtney, and the Behm family as they honor their Dad/Grandfather. Forrest Behm was engaging, kind, and accomplished. His life will be celebrated in the countless memories of those who were blessed to have known him.

I had the chance to meet Forrest one time. Although my time with Corning intestected his, we didn't meet at work. I was out on a bike ride in the hills around Caton back in the mid '80's, and ended up riding along with this wonderful gentleman. I was in my late 20's at that time, and was duly impressed by how he powered up the hills. The short time I spent with him on that ride stuck with me, I still remember it fondly.

Those of us family members from Nebraska have enjoyed reliving the tradition of Forrie. A number of years ago we were with him for dinner after a UNL football game and at the restaurant was a photo of the Rose Bowl team he was a part of. We loved it. Thoughts are with you Courtney, Doug, Brian and Greg.
Love, Harry and Judy Gaylor
